Market Impact

The typhoons in Vietnam and the Philippines will negatively impact the agricultural sector, particularly coffee-growing regions in Vietnam, and will likely increase insurance claims. The extensive damage to infrastructure and homes will also require significant reconstruction efforts, potentially boosting construction but straining national budgets.
